Any ideas on when those first appeared in 2.3?

Ok, just wanted to know if it was supposed to break :)
Looks like 2.2.16-pre5 is the latest one I have been testing with, and
that one is ok. And so are other 2.2's (2.2.14, 2.2.13?, 2.2.16-pre2).
I have a few pointers saying that it may be something known (one is to an
"Al Viro, open on socket not failing as it should" thread the last week).
I'll probably try to run a "test which version it breaks in" and see if I
understand anything. Unless there is an -ac12 before that which fixes it
all. :)
